Panis Angelicus
04:37
|
|||
LATIN
Panis angelicus
fit panis hominum; Dat panis caelicus figuris terminum:
O res mirabilis! manducat Dominum
Pauper, servus, et humilis.
Te trina Deitas unaque poscimus:
Sic nos tu visita, sicut te colimus;
Per tuas semitas
duc nos quo tendimus, Ad lucem quam inhabitas. Amen.
ENGLISH
Bread of Angels,
made the bread of men;
The Bread of heaven
puts an end to all symbols: A thing wonderful!
The Lord becomes our food: poor, a servant, and humble. We beseech Thee,
Godhead One in Three That Thou wilt visit us, as we worship Thee,
lead us through Thy ways,
We who wish to reach the light in which Thou dwellest.
Amen.

Three Psalms—Psalm 66
03:39
|
|||
Jubilate Deo, omnis terra, psalmum dicite nominis ejus, date gloriam laudi ejus.
Benedicite, gentes, Deum nostram, et auditam facite vocem laudis ejus, qui posuit animam meam ad vitam,
et non dedit in commotionem pedes meos. Jubilate Deo omnis terra!
Shout with joy to God, all the earth, sing a psalm to his name;
give glory to his praise.
O bless our God, you Gentiles:
and make the voice of his praise to be heard. Who has set my soul to live:
and has not suffered my feet to be moved: Shout with joy to God, all the earth!

Three Psalms—Psalm 19
04:42
|
|||
Caeli enarrant gloriam Dei,
et opera manum ejus annuntiat firmamentum. Dies diei eructat verbum,
et nox nocti indicat scientiam.
Non sunt loquelae, neque sermones, quorum non audiantur voces eorum. In omnem terram exivit sonus eorum, et in fines orbis terrae verba eorum.
The heavens show forth the glory of God,
and the firmament declares the work of his hands. Day to day utters speech,
and night to night shows knowledge. There are no speeches nor languages, where their voices are not heard.
Their sound has gone forth into all the earth: and their words unto the ends of the world.

Three Psalms—Psalm 150
05:29
|
|||
Laudate Dominum in sanctis ejus, laudate eum in firmamento virtutis ejus. Laudate eum in virtutibus ejus,
laudate eum secundum multitudinem magnitudinis ejus!
Laudate eum in sono tubae, laudate eum in psalterio et cithara. Laudate eum in timpano et choro, laudate eum in chordis et organo.
Laudate eum in cymbalis benesonantibus, laudate eum in cymbalis jubilationis.
Omnis spiritus laudet Dominum!
Praise the Lord in his holy places:
praise him in the firmament of his power. Praise him for his mighty acts:
praise him according to the multitude of his greatness.
Praise him with the sound of trumpet: praise him with psaltery and harp.
Praise him with timbrel and choir: praise him with strings and organs. Praise him on high sounding cymbals: praise him on cymbals of joy:
Let every spirit praise the Lord.

EPICIDEUM HATHUMODE
Te iam portus habet
Nos ad huc iactet abyssus Te lux vera tenet
Nos tenebrae retinent
Te cum virginibus comitans
Quocumque eat agnum lilia cum violis colisis atque rosis
Nos cum coancilis nostris tumulo ecce tuopte flores spargentes ducimus excubias
LAMENT FOR HATHUMODA, ABBESS OF GANDESHEIM
You, resting in safe harbor.
We, towards this place come shaken in grief. Your light is held bright in our memory, Even as darkness takes hold in our hearts.
You, walking the path of the Virgin
We and our sisters follow your steps as we adorn them with lilies, violets and roses, And on your burial mound gently scatter buds as we silently keep your watch.

Silentium
Pro lingua, labia, ore, gutture.
Silentium.
Pro umbra, in temporis iudiciis, facie, clara.
Silentium.
Pro lapide, trunco, flumine, ramo.
Silentium.
Pro vulnere. Pro sanguine vulneris, pro oculo.
Silentium.
Pro ossi, casu, alba lunae dona.
Silentium.
Pro vobis. Silentium.
Pro tempore. Silentium.
Id ardet.

Silence
For the tongue, the lips, the mouth, the throat.
Silence.
For the shadow in time’s courts, the face, the bright one.
Silence.
For the stone, the stem, the stream, the branch.
Silence.
For the wound. For the blood of the wound, for the eye.
Silence.
For the bone, the fall the white moon-gifts.
Silence.
For you. Silence.
For time. Silence.
It burns.

LATIN
Credo in Deum Patrem omnipotentem,
Creatorem caeli et terrae,
et in Iesum Christum, Filium Eius unicum,
Dominum nostrum,
qui conceptus est de Spiritu Sancto,
natus ex Maria Virgine,
passus sub Pontio Pilato,
crucifixus, mortuus, et sepultus,
descendit ad inferos,
tertia die resurrexit a mortuis,
ascendit ad caelos,
sedet ad dexteram Dei Patris omnipotentis,
inde venturus est iudicare vivos et mortuos.
Credo in Spiritum Sanctum,
sanctam Ecclesiam catholicam,
sanctorum communionem,
remissionem peccatorum,
carnis resurrectionem,
vitam aeternam. Amen
ENGLISH
I believe in God the Father Almighty,
Creator of heaven and earth,
I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son,
Our Lord,
who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,
born of the Virgin Mary,
He suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died, and was buried,
He descended into hell,
the third day he rose again from the dead,
He ascended into heaven,
is seated at the right hand of God the Father Almighty;
He will come again to judge the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the holy catholic Church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
resurrection of the body,
eternal life. Amen
